Developer Certificates with DRM/TCB capabilities

1 replies · 0 views · Started 06 March 2006

Hi,

Has anybody tried to get a DevCert with DRM and/or TCB capabilities?

The Symbian Signed process clearly allows for a developer to have these.
However, it seems that for some reason neither of the OEMs (Nokia/SE)
will grant those.

I would like to see a statement on the Symbian Signed website
whether one should be able to get these FOR REAL - and with what
possible reasoning. Just so that people would not wast their time
in trying to get one.

Given the risks involved it is up to the manufacturer to make the decision
whether or not they trust you with these capabilities.
